On Monday’s broadcast of ABC’s “GMA3,” Newark Mayor Ras Baraka stated that ICE is engaging in “this witch hunt for people who they say may be murderers or rapists or criminals. I don’t know how you determine a criminal simply by looking at them or somebody that’s undocumented simply by looking at them, particularly in a place like Newark, New Jersey, where there’s high levels of diversity, of people from different parts of the world here.”
Baraka stated, “Well, so three undocumented folks were detained, taken away by [ICE]. But there [was] a whole store full of other folks who were in there who were held in the store unlawfully, [whose] IDs were checked, a military veteran who was there, who they made mockery of his ID, trying to make him believe that it was fake. They took these people through the motions, and they should not have. And, to me, that is a violation of these people’s constitutional rights for sure. For them to say that citizens will be collateral damage is for us to say that the Constitution should be collateral damage.”

Illegals beg not to be sent to Newark.
Biden’s Fault. Pass it on. ;-)
What’s a Ras Baraka? On of Obammie’s cousins?
Sure - if they look like Ras Baraka, they are probably trouble....
They broke into MY country. That makes them criminals right off the bat!
Democrats have trouble identifying criminals (like illegal aliens) because Democrats are criminals.
Is this guy ever in for a shock when he finds the criminals are only the *first* to be rounded up and later the rest are going too.
Better to have to wait for ICE questioning for 10 minutes than to spend 10 months looking for work and not finding it.
Demographic observation - urban mayors tend to be foreign nationals and/or extremely left leaning democrats.
Meet the next Governor of NJ. Ras Baraka.
undocumented folk bump.
Ras will be getting an invite to the congressional hearing soon along with chicago mayor
Who believes this?
“a military veteran who was there, who they made mockery of his ID, trying to make him believe that it was fake”
The slum lords and organized crime groups depend on gubmint payments to illegals like section 8 housing.
This parasitic crowd is the mayor’s electoral base. Of course he is upset.
Hint to the scumbag mayor: if a person is in America illegally, he (or she) is a criminal. That’s the definition of “illegal”, you moron.
The law says they are criminals, and ANY mayor that doesn’t think so doesn’t deserve their job beczuse they are in obvious violation of their oath!
Seems like enough probable cause to check IDs, like detaining people at a murder scene to check IDs.
Oh, c’mon, this is Newark. Look what Brooklyn sent to DC.
